The Peoples Democratic Party North Central Zonal Caretaker Committee overseeing Niger State has described as fake, reports that former Niger State Governor and member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Board of Trustees (BoT), Dr. Muazu Babangida Aliyu has been suspended by the party.
The former governor was reportedly suspended during an emergency Stakeholders’ meeting of Chachanga local Area in Minna on Monday.
The meeting was reportedly attended by eight ward Chairmen of the party out of the 11 wards, elders and party faithful from Chanchaga LGA.
However, one of the Media Aides of the former Governor, Mr. Bala Bitrus, said that the suspension is laughable as the state PDP does not have an executive in place to approve such suspension.
